Best Wishes and Some Exciting news To Share!

Hello there my crafty friends!  For today's card, I started by embossing a piece of light grey card with the Leafy Forest embossing folder.  Once embossed, I lightly sponged over the trees with Weathered Wood Distress ink to highlight the trees a bit.  Next, I used the Stitched Hills and Clouds die and cut a small green green hill and taped it to the bottom of the card.  I cut a handful of mushrooms from the Autumn Harvest die set in shades of grey and red.  I assembled them and added them to the background.  I also cut some foliage using the Forest Floor Foliage die set and added it around the mushrooms.  I cut Bailey the Bunny in shades of grey and assembled her and added her to the middle of the card with mounting foam. I cut the Best Wishes sentiment in both red and black and shadowed it then added it to the top of the card.   The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 1/4"  in size. 

And now I have a little bit of exciting news to share with you!

After many months of researching, writing, checking facts, and asking myself countless questions, I've finally published my very first book of trivia!

It's called I Bet You Didn't Know That! A Thousand Questions, and it's now available on all the Amazon platforms!

If you know me at all, you know how much I love trivia. I've always enjoyed discovering those fascinating little facts that make you say, "Well, I never knew that!" So I decided to put a thousand of them together in a book that you can enjoy on your own, with friends, or at your next get-together.

I've attached a little picture so you can see what I've been up to!

If you enjoy trivia, or know someone who does, I'd be absolutely delighted if you'd take a look.  And if you decide to purchase a copy, an honest review on Amazon would mean the world to me. Reviews are especially helpful to new authors trying to get their books noticed.

Most of all, I just wanted to share this little adventure with you. It's been a lot of work, a lot of fun, and something I'm rather proud to have accomplished.

Thank you for letting me share my exciting news!

All for now,

Sue x
